Early in the morning of the second day, the army assembled heavily and attacked at all four gates.

As soon as they came up, the army did not have any temptation, and the siege troops pressed directly, and the siege equipment was all ready, and the firepower was fully opened.

Although the defenders of Longcheng were weak, they had the people of Longcheng as backup, moving stones, loading oil pots, sending arrows, and carrying the wounded.

Zhou Cheng saw this situation and was expressionless.

It was noon, and seeing that the siege was fruitless, Zhou Chengyi waved his hand and ordered: "Mingjin collects the troops." ”

The soldiers and civilians of Longcheng in the city all cheered when they saw the retreat of the army. Every time the army repelled an attack, it added confidence to the soldiers and civilians of Longcheng.

Upper Beijing.

The wide official road is no longer bustling with people in the past, only pedestrians in twos and threes. In recent days, Zhongchu has not been very peaceful, first natural disasters, and then man-made disasters, although they are far away from Beijing, but still have a lot of impact.

A recent civil strife has made the people of Shangjing even more panicked, and even the commercial trade with the capital has been reduced by half.

On this sparse official road, a figure suddenly appeared.

"Northern Frontier Emergency. ”

"Northern Frontier Emergency. ”

......

"Smack", an urgent report was slapped on the table by Kuang Yue.

"Your Majesty, how is the war in the north?" Seeing Kuang Yue's appearance, Hu Tu already had bad thoughts in his heart.

"The Dragon Pass has been broken, and the army of 150,000 people has invaded the northern border. I heard that the Forbidden Cavalry is also coming. ”

When the people heard this, their faces turned like earth.

The northern part of Zhongchu is a vast plain irrigated by the Henghe River, and the northern border depends on the Longguan natural danger to block the Li army. Now that the Dragon Pass has been lost, there is no army in the north that can stop the army from moving south. In addition, the army gathered 150,000 troops, and there was the first cavalry forbidden cavalry army on the mainland, and Shangjing was like a naked girl in front of the army, and the army only needed to rush across the Great Plains and cross the Henghe River, and they could directly peep into Kyoto.

"Your Majesty, for the sake of today's plan, the only way to do this is to quickly recall General Han and General Feng, and then order the surrounding defenders to return to King Qin, just in case. Please ask Your Majesty to order the forbidden army to escort the holy car on its southern tour in an attempt to resist. Cui Zhan made a suggestion on the side.

When the ministers in the back heard Cui Zhan's words, they also echoed them.

Kuang Yue heard everyone's persuasion, and her face was expressionless, so that everyone couldn't guess what she was thinking.

After waiting for a while, she spoke: "Call General Han back first, and General Feng will not move for the time being, in case Chen Guosheng changes." ”

"What about His Majesty's southern tour?" Cui Zhan asked tentatively.

"This matter is left to Master Cui. Kuang Yue said.

"Your Majesty. ”

"Your Majesty. ”

Hearing that Kuang Yue did not object to the retreat to the south, everyone's hanging hearts were relieved and they saluted one after another.

......

The army's attack in the morning failed to break through Longcheng, the enthusiasm of the people was too high, and with the cooperation of the army and the people, it would be difficult to capture Longcheng for a while and a half.

It was past noon, and the army set up a position in front of the city, and it seemed that it was preparing to attack again. In the past few days, the army has lost thousands of people, and it has only been two or three days, and the losses are not small.

Wan Shuang watched the army prepare to attack the city again, and he was also big for a while. In the morning, when the army attacked the city, he already had the belief that he would die, but he did not expect that the people in the city would come to help defend the city under the organization of some people, so that he could survive the morning, but before he had time to rejoice, the army began to gather a large number of troops to attack the city in the afternoon.

The siege in the afternoon was not as fierce as in the morning, but it made Wan Shuang breathe a sigh of relief, and it seemed that the army was also a little powerless. Thinking of this, his belief in victory in his heart was even stronger.

It's just that what he never expected was that as soon as his belief was firmed, some rumors appeared in the city, saying that the Li army had taken the northern border of Zhongchu, and the Li army had begun to attack Shangjing, and Longcheng was already a lonely city.

These remarks slowly spread among the people, and many people became pessimistic as a result, which Wan Shuang did not expect. And this news spread ten, ten spread hundreds, at first these rumors were only spread among the people, and then the soldiers who defended the city slowly learned about it, and there was even a Longcheng general who specifically asked Wanshuang for confirmation.

Fortunately, Wanshuang immediately woke up, inspired everyone, and began to devote himself to the tense battle again.

It's just that he has no good way to stop these rumors that are widely circulated among the people, and he has buried a major hidden danger for the future.

"Qin Ba, it's up to you next, take the beggar camp and take down the Dragon City for me. Zhou Cheng said to Qin Ba.

"Leave it to your subordinates. ”

Qin Ba couldn't hold back the excitement in his heart for a long time, and after knowing that he was a pioneer yesterday, he was so happy that he couldn't close his eyes all night.

I've been waiting for the order this morning, but I haven't waited for a long time, and now I finally sent him to play, so I was naturally restless.

Qin Ba led the beggar camp, mixed with the siege troops, and began to siege the city.

The soldiers of the beggar camp were all fierce and vicious, full of anger, fearless of death, and extremely brave in battle, and they rushed up to the city tower not long after.

When Wan Shuang heard that an elite army rushed to the city wall, he was shocked, and immediately led people to catch up with the city tower and fought fiercely with Qin Ba's beggar camp.

Just when Qin Ba and Wanshuang were in a stalemate, a group of people suddenly appeared at the north gate of the city.

This group of people dressed in the costumes of the people of Dragon City, pretending to deliver supplies all the way, arrived at the north gate.

As soon as this group of people arrived at the city gate, they suddenly burst out, immediately pulled out their weapons from the goods they carried, and killed the Chu army when they saw it.

"Brothers, it's important to open the door, don't fight. Hu Qiao yelled.

Since Liao Ziping led his troops away, he has been lurking in the city, and if Longcheng is easily breached by the Li army, he will naturally be useless. But now it was different, the defenders of Dragon City actually held out for three days under the attack of the Li army.

In order to avoid greater casualties, Zhou Cheng decided to use his pawn.

Hu Qiao received the news last night, and this afternoon, he was ordered to lead people to break through the north gate and pick up the Li army. He immediately led the two hundred lishi of his fish village and disguised himself as a common man to attack.

The sneak attack was successful, and the Chu army in the city did not expect that someone would suddenly burst out and hurt people, and they were at a loss for a while.

Hu Qiao led two hundred Leshi, all the way through the thorns, and rushed to the city gate before the surrounding Chu troops could react.

Outside the city, the rushing cars of the army were storming the city gates, and a large number of soldiers were piled up at the city gates, and they were crowded one by one. Under the bombardment of the rushing car, the city gate continued to vibrate and crumble, but the Chu army resisted, and the city gate never fell.

Hu Qiao led the people to kill the Chu army at the gate of the city. The Chu army crowded at the city gate was like an onion, peeled off piece by piece by Hu Qiao, and the screams of the Chu soldiers came and went.

Those Chu troops who resisted the city gate did not expect that they did not fall under the impact of the enemy outside the city, but died at the hands of the people inside the city.

The Chu army at the front reacted, but there was nothing to be done. The rushing cars outside the city hit more and more fiercely, and the spies in the city stretched out their butcher knives again.

"Boom ......"

"Knock ......"

With two loud bangs, the gates were breached.

"Kill!"

As soon as the gates were broken, the army rushed into the city like crazy.

As soon as Hu Qiao saw the attack of the Li army, he immediately turned his head and killed the city wall. The North Gate City was broken, and a large number of Li troops continued to pour into Dragon City.

Wan Shuang, who was in the city tower, suddenly heard that the army was killing from the city, and his heart was shocked.

Seeing that Wanshuang was distracted, Qin Ba had a good opportunity in his heart, took a step, and reflexively slapped Wanshuang's chest with a palm.

Wan Shuang couldn't react, and was shot out by Qin Ba, but before he landed, Qin Ba took three steps and made two steps, followed with a knife, and cut off Wan Shuang's neck.

As soon as Wanshuang died, the last resistance of Dragon City was gone, and the soldiers of the surrounding Dragon City died, fled, and those who couldn't escape dropped their weapons and surrendered.

Dragon City, under this internal and external attack, finally fell.
